(The) Living Proof - Shooter Jennings

When I was just a young boy
My daddy came to me
Said
Son out in this world
There's alot of things that are gonna make you feel like you're supposed to be
You don't have to read the good book
Be a good man just the same
And forget about the money
Money ain't brought nothin' to your daddy but pain
It ain't easy
It ain't easy
But you'll be alright
Now it's fifteen years later
And I'm out on the road
And it's been four years to the day since he died and they won't even play us on the radio
And I think I found my way alright
Without him here to catch me now and again
I just keep on moving along keeping my mind on my song and trying to play about love
Any other fool
Any other fool would throw this away
Any other fool
Wanna take a minute to thank you
For all the things that you've done
Yeah you gave me a light in the dark of the night
When there was no where to hide no where to run
